Dragon Tamer - Chapter 1304: 1308: Making a Wish

Chapter 1304: Chapter 1308: Making a Wish

“Our God, hear my wish…”

A voice slowly drifted up from below the clouds and reached the ears of the Weaver Star.

On ordinary days, there were many such voices, and the Weaver Star would listen to them all but rarely responded.

The Qixi Festival was approaching, and such wishes were countless, with not a billion, certainly several tens of millions.

At this moment, however, the Immortal Elder chuckled and said to the Weaver Star, “Today’s lucky one, let her be it. If the Heavenly Zither Fairy is to concentrate on the matters of the Red Sun, then shall I attend to the wish of this little woman from the human realm on her behalf?”

“Thank you, Elder of the Moon,” replied the Weaver Star.

The Weaver Star and the Elder of the Moon shared some similarities in their divine duties, so sometimes they could both hear similar pleas from the human realm.

With a gentle sweep of his sleeve, the Immortal Elder caused the clouds in front of him to disperse slowly, and the human realm below appeared calm like a quiet, round mirror. He cast some spells, and soon he found the person who had prayed to the deities.

The Immortal Elder looked and saw a beauty of about eighteen or nineteen, charming and enticing, her eyes pure and lively.

She was on an island in Orange Mountain Lake Island, where splendid corals scattered chaotically like a treasure trove of jewels, untamed yet striking—a sight as captivating as the woman of the human realm.

The Immortal Elder, able to observe Qi, naturally noticed the spiritual radiance that enveloped the young woman, similar to the glow of the jade moon. Such a light was only present on those of good cultivation. No wonder her voice reached the heavens of Cloud Sky Heaven Court. It seems the heavens favored her too, hoping that he and the Weaver Star would fulfill her wish.

The young woman from the human realm was quite pleasing to the Immortal Elder’s eye.

The Weaver Star also gave her a fleeting glance, not too concerned.

“Let’s see which young master is so fortunate to have caught the favor of such a woman,” said the Immortal Elder, motioning with his hand, and once again the fog dispersed, allowing them to peer into more scenes of the human realm.

Turns out on the sea surface gazed upon by the woman, on a shallow and white sandy beach, there was a handsome young man with black hair combed backward by the sea breeze. Although somewhat disheveled, it revealed the young man’s carefree smile and geniality…

A faint light enveloped the beach and also fell upon the young man, an indescribable purity and uniqueness about him, as if he had stepped out from the untainted Snow Country Heavenly Mountain or as a sincere little prince with perfect lineage from a mysterious kingdom, or even like a Young Immortal who has left a Hidden Immortal Sect to roam.

The Immortal Elder used the art of observing Qi and found the young man’s nature to be complex and hazy, not easily judged by such simple observation.

“The woman is good, the man even more unique,” the Immortal Elder commented.

The Weaver Star took a few more looks at the youth, and in the end, only nodded in agreement with the Immortal Elder’s assessment.

“Shall we bring them together?” the Immortal Elder asked the Weaver Star with a smile.

“What do you think?” inquired the Weaver Star.

“It seems the woman has affection for the young man, but we don’t know what he thinks. Shall we observe further?” the Immortal Elder suggested.

“The young man will likely be dazzling in the future; the woman, deeply entangled in the snare of love, will find it difficult to advance her cultivation. This is not a good match. If it were up to me, I would not bring them together,” the Weaver Star concluded.

“Indeed, indeed, but let’s still see what the young man thinks. Affection often can break through all worldly chains,” the Immoral Elder reflected.

The fog dispersed further, allowing the two deities to see even more.

Clearly, the girl’s attention at that moment was entirely focused on the young man, as if she had confirmed the burgeoning affections in her heart, which is why she poured out her feelings to the deities, making wishes to the heavens…

As for the young man, his gaze was on the sea’s surface, and finally, an island rose up from the sea like a turtle’s back, filled with the spiritual energy from the depths of the sea and countless rare spirit ores.

A young dragon appeared faint and somewhat indistinct, after all, even celestial beings cannot see everything, some images are destined to be hazy…

The young dragon lunged towards the newly risen Turtle Back Island and began to nibble on it, as if it were a freshly baked pancake, nibbling with relish.

The young dragon revealed a happy smile, and the young man too, watching his own dragon, felt very content.

“Alas, the heart of youth is invested in dragon training,” said the Immortal Elder.

“That’s not necessarily a bad thing,” remarked the Weaver Star.

“It seems this old one still views things too optimistically. Such beautiful corals, the lovely sea, such a fine girl, and the young man is a fine lad as well…” the Immortal Elder sighed deeply.

“Still going to matchmake?” asked the Weaver Star.

“No need, no need. The girl clearly is smart, knowing that the young man’s heart may not hold her, which is why she is asking us, hence making a wish. If it had been some stubborn girl who hadn’t thought things through, she might have already confessed her feelings directly, proclaimed her love, and what we would be seeing now would not be this beautiful distancing, but rather the girl crying alone facing the sea,” the Immortal Elder explained.

“Indeed. On the Qixi Festival, we’ll have to trouble the Old Cupid,” said the Weaver Star.

“That is a festival passed down by the common folk in reverence to you, after all.”

“People always ask me what love is, yet as someone who stands alone, how can I resolve their perplexities?” said the Weaver Star with a smile, not without a trace of self-mockery.

“A healer heals not himself; may I, as an elder, look out for where that person of yours might be?” suggested the Old Cupid.

“No need, I respect my own fate.”

…

…

As the moon rises and sets, days on Bi Luo Island are simple yet meaningful.

Zhu Minglang is gradually feeling a sense of belonging, finding the Southern Heavenly Palace really not too bad, and even feeling somewhat guilty as a little woodworm.

Of course, the woodworm plan is still ongoing.

Having devoured an entire Post-Rain Island by itself, Little Glutton successfully completed its metamorphosis. Although it is in a slumbering state, when it awakens, its cultivation base will undoubtedly not be low.

Thḭ𝓈 𝖼hⱥpţ𝕖r 𝒾𝑠 p𝘰𝖘𝐭𝗲𝕕 bƴ 𝓀𝙞ţ𝓮ɳ0νℯ𝗅

Also, because of swallowing Post-Rain Island, it seems to have frightened Sister Qiao Caiqing, as Zhu Minglang feels that this adorable junior sister has recently been intentionally avoiding him.

This is also good, after all, getting too close to the junior sister, making her misunderstand that he has feelings for her, would not be ideal; he is a man with a family, and after getting through this phase, he still has to go back to them. Flirting around is not good, not good.

But without Qiao Caiqing, Zhu Minglang would face many troubles.

As Qixi Festival is approaching, many junior sisters are folding little paper kites, and Little Maid Xiao Xiao has an extra duty, which is to collect these paper kites for Zhu Minglang every day. All the matters of conveying love are handled by her, leading Little Maid Xiao Xiao to believe that it is Zhu Minglang who is actively provoking these junior sisters, and in Xiao Xiao’s eyes, Zhu Minglang is already marked as a heartless playboy.
